Last year Gavin Munn spent spring break in Puerto Rico. He posted some pics to his Instagram, and I added a few of my own.
Men's bodies, gay romance, and queer codes in movies and tv, especially "The Righteous Gemstones"
I've been going through the posts from when this site was specific to The Righteous Gemstones, trying to make them appeal to a general audience. I did it with Dylan B., and I couldn't even use his last name. But Brandon Johnston turned out to be a problem:
But when I googled "Bryce Johnston," all I found was the owner of the Philadelphia Eagles and the heavily tattooed Father Midnight.
The original post also mentions that Brandon Johnson/Johnston is interested in gay Hollywood History.
"His Instagram videos tell the stories of many LGBTQ pioneers in the industry, such as Dorthy Arzner, William Haines, and James Whale."
More Brandon, probably, after the break
Sex god from Sarajevo
Mostar, two hours by train south of Sarajevo, near the Adriatic Sea, is famous for its old Turkish quarter, as well as the Museum of War and Genocide Victims. Ok...well, there are three gay-friendly bars.
His sister Dee (Kaitlyn Olson), the bar's waitress, fancies herself an actress.
Mac (Rob McElhenney, left), the bouncer, is obsessed with muscles, and rather homophobic. He gets a lot of "is he or isn't he?" jokes, until he finally comes out, then goes back in, and comes out again.
Frank (Danny DeVito, the moon), Dennis and Dee's rich con-artist sort-of-father, bankrolls the schemes.
He and Charlie (Charlie Day, center), the bar's janitor, live together, share a bed, and get a lot of "are they or aren't they?" jokes, but it's also hinted that Frank is Charlie's biological father, not his boyfriend.
None of the cast is homophobic in real life. In 2018, they all appeared on a Paddy's Pub float at the LA Pride Parade, giving Mac a chance to show off his new ripped bod.
Scene 1: Mac is in a Catholic confession booth (where you confess your sins to the priest, who gives you a penance to perform). His confession: he's fat. Not a sin, dude.
Scene 2: Next Mac asks the priest to have God smite his enemies...um, friends...well, friends who want to destroy him. Not what confession is for, dude. He explains: they became wildly successful, which made them monsters (um...they've been monsters since Season 1), which made them want Mac to be fat. Confused?
Flashback: Frank, the anti-father, returns from a trip to sell illegal fireworks in North Carolina to find the bar packed. What happened? Mac thinks that they just "tipped": if you make the right decisions long enough, eventually things tip in your favor. Charlie thinks it's his cleaning, Dee her jokes, Dennis his hotness. They don't know which it is, so they have to continue doing everything.
Left: Frank, Danny DeVito.
Scene 4: The next day, Dennis won't come out of the bathroom, so Charlie has to bartend, which he's not qualified for. Meanwhile, Dee tries to be funny, ignoring customers' orders to tell lame half-jokes and berating them when they don't laugh, and Mac comes late in after a rager involving three bottles of champaign and a stray dog. Everything is in chaos.
They all go into the bathroom to see what's wrong with Dennis: he found a couple of gray hairs and tried to eradicate them, ending with a terrible haircut. He's afraid to be seen in public.
Scene 5: After bartending all night, Charlie is exhausted; plus he hasn't had time to clean. Frank has come up with a new prank: four stop signs at an intersection, so no one can move, har har. Charlie points out that he built a four-way stop, actually making the neighborhood safer. "Ok, then, why don't we go around and hit people with sticks?" Charlie doesn't want to do that, either. Not the best ideas for Date Night, buddy.
More sunny after the break
Augustana was a small college, so there weren't many choices for Modern Language Majors: Spanish, French, German, Swedish, Latin, Greek, and occasionally Russian. We had to "become fluent" in two languages and "competent" in a third, so I chose Spanish and French, which I studied in high school, and German, because I spent the fall quarter of my sophomore year in Regensburg.
We also had to participate in at least one language club, but the Spanish, French, and German clubs were kind of boring, with bake sales, foreign-language films, and field trips to the Goethe Institut or the Alliance Française in Chicago.Brock is a co-creator and model for Kane Comic Universe about an immortal muscleman who travels through time, fighting demons, evil gods, madmen, and so on. Warning: Issue #2 features women's boobs rather than Brock pecs.
Maybe because he's nearly anonymous. No Instagram, X, Facebook, or TikTok page, an IMDB biography with just his home town and date of birth -- Waterville, Maine, February 13, 1981. Seven movies listed on IMDB, all between 2006 and 2016. Most directed by Todd Verow, most featuring frontal nudity. A decade of dicks, and then silence.
The rest of the decade after the break
Judy: "That's why I'm surprised you weren't butt buddies with them."
He gets annoyed, not because she alludes to him being gay but because she implied that he's also "dumb and strange," and therefore perfect for the Montgomerys.
More military guys after the break
